JAKARTA - The Ministry of Health (Kemenkes) is collaborating with two managers of hospital facilities owned by the Government of Saudi Arabia to ensure the care of participants in Hajj candidates from Indonesia who experience health problems.

Reported by the facility, namely King Fahd Hospital and King Salman Bin Abdul Aziz Hospital.

"We have coordinated with the manager and they welcome it, and will cooperate with Indonesia," said Head of Madinah Work Area Zainal Mutaqin from a written statement from the Ministry of Finance's Bureau of Communication and Public Services, Friday, May 26, confiscated by Antara.

Zainal accompanied by the Head of the Indonesian Hajj Health Section Daker Medina Tfsin Alfarizi and the medical service team visited the Saudi Arabian Hospital on Thursday, May 25.

The visit was an effort to optimize the health implementation of Indonesian pilgrims while in the Holy Land.

During the visit, a number of collaborations were produced, including the Saudi Arabian Hospital which was willing to receive patient referrals from participants in Indonesian Hajj candidates.

"Because not all cases experienced by Indonesian Hajj candidates can be handled at the Indonesian Hajj Health Office (KKHI) in Medina," he said.

During the visit, the Madinah Daker Team was received directly by the leadership at two Saudi Arabian hospitals.

Zainal Mutaqin said the RSAS in Medina was committed and ready to receive referrals from Indonesian pilgrims and was ready to work with KKHI Medina to provide the best health services for Indonesian Hajj candidates.

King Fahad Hospital and King Salman Bin Abdul Aziz Hospital are referral hospitals from KKHI Medina for patients from Indonesia who need further treatment.

KKHI Medina is a health service facility prepared by the Indonesian Government in Medina, with a capacity of 69 beds for Emergency Installation (IGD), Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Isolation, hospitalization, and psychiatry.

KKHI Medina is also equipped with laboratories, pharmacies, dentists, 11 ambulance units, as well as supporting facilities such as ultrasound, EKG, and Echocardiography.

Head of the Indonesian Hajj Health Section Daker Madinah Thafsin Alfarizi said cooperation between KKHI Medina and the Saudi Arabian Hospital in Medina was important to reduce the death rate for Indonesian Hajj candidates during the 1444H/2023 M Hajj pilgrimage.

"Hopefully this good cooperation between KKHI Medina and the Saudi Arabian Hospital is an effort to mitigate the reduction in the death rate of prospective hajj candidates in Saudi Arabia," he said.
